		<description><![CDATA[In America or England, I was sure; they wouldn’t put your old, dead daddy on the bed and tie handkerchief around his head to keep his mouth shut.

As it turned out, that’s what my mother had been doing. When she finally stood up straight and stepped away from the bed, she declared that it should be tight enough. I assumed she was meant the handkerchief, tied under Mr. Morris’ chin and over his head top. Now that she was out of the way, I had my first good look at a dead man. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[How should the 'true-true' Bahamian house look? Think about the Ford automobiles of the late fifties. The accent is on big and noticeable with plenty of glazing. Some of us would incorporate chrome into our exterior design, as well, if we could but find a way. Try, by all means, to afford hilltop property or large acreage, but don't despair if you can't. Squeezing a 4,000 square foot, two-storied, balconied house on a 50' x 100' lot will have much the same impact.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This issue's featured <strong>writer on writers</strong> is Patricia  Glinton-Meicholas<strong>,</strong> a Bahamian satirist, poet, storyteller and  novelist who may be best known for her books <em>How to be a True-True  Bahamian</em> and <em>The Ninety-Nine Cent Breakfast</em>, or for her  collection of Bahamian folk tales, <em>An Evening in Guanima</em>, which  every Bahamian schoolchild appears to have read.

Again owing to circumstances beyond the control of us all (including acts of God, ash clouds, and the demands of Patti's own life), we don't have a video for you. But we will one day add audio—or, at the very least, a picture. ]]></description>

languishing in electronic limbo
in the guts
of Ms Rose’s
new state-of-the-art
Bose sound system,
mined a silver note
from the motherlode
of sweet, jook dance]]></description>

beneath the sea’s horizon,
or evaporates into high noon’s
blue ether. ]]></description>
